Untitled is a 1997 ink by Willie Cole, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The image presents a woodcut print featuring a central, elongated rectangle with a pointed end, surrounded by ten smaller circles. Each circle contains a unique shape, resembling a shield or a leaf, with some displaying dots or lines. The print is set against a black background, with a beige border around the edges. Upon closer inspection, the shapes within the circles appear to be variations of the same design, with subtle differences in their patterns and markings. The central rectangle, with its pointed end, adds a sense of dynamism to the composition. This woodcut print is a testament to the artist's skill in creating intricate, detailed designs.
